Hi,

we've got some legacy Ada source code which we want to compile into a
library which will be accessed using a MS VC++ application.  Although we've
managed to compile the ada code and turn the .o files into a library when it
comes to linking the C++ program we get thousands of errors which seem to
relate to system calls within the library (i.e. put method).
Do we need to do anything 'special' whilst creating the library or the
object files? at present we just use (from the command line):

ar r myLib.lib *.o

many thanks,
